Which is exactly what the problem with the US criminal i justice system is, it allows idiots like you to condem people without facts. You’re don’t have any as you’re not in possession of anything including the ability to think.
HS was wide awake & in a homicidal rage when Twila returned. He told the police that he awoke & that the only bottle of booze was gone b/c Twila had taken it to the party. They fought until Scooter pulled him off her. Things calmed down until Twila ran & grabbed the axe handle & attacked him. After murdering all three, he was able to walk 4 blks to his gf's trailer & break in. He also stayed awake until the police came to arrest him 3 hrs later & he hid in a closet. Incapacitated, my a**
Here in Texas, one who is convicted and sentenced to die, is likely not to leave prison alive, innocent or not. The problem with the Texas justice system is that the only way one gets a new trial where the initial conviction could be overturned, is if it is established that the defendant had his constitutional rights violated during his trial. Guilt or innocence is irrelevant as long as the defendant's conviction has been lawful. So, be charged with a capital crime, have some second rate public pretender (sorry, I meant defender), a police force and district attorneys office who are solely concerned with closing cases and get as many convictions as possible because eventually there are elections to be won, then you have a recipe for death row whether you're innocent or not. So being in Hank Skinner's situation (if he is actually innocent that is), getting out of the mess he's in, is next to impossible and it takes something like divine intervention to get off death row. And of course not to forget that here in Texas the death penalty is so extremely politicized and the justice system from top to bottom commercialized. As the Godfather said: "It's nothing personal, it's just business!"
Amen to that ! Texas system is exactly how you told it! It's evil and fucked up... The only thing I can say is stay the fuck outta trouble especially in Texas it's not worth it. But the only way to get the death penalty in Texas is if you kill a child kill a cop kill multiple people or kill while doing a felony!

How does Skinner know the murdered son "routed the killer out of the house?" Why didn't Skinner ask the son, "Who did this?" Why didn't he go with the son to the neighbor's? How did blood stains get on the front and back of Skinner's shirt if it was folded over a chair?
I personally believe that Hank was so intoxicated, he was in a blackout when he murdered his girlfriend and two sons. He did it but because of alcohol and drugs have no rememberance of it.
than WHY should he wear a oversized jacket???? how many oversized jackets do u have in your closet??? and the most important thing is WHY isnt his DNA on the jacket???? WHY wasnt blood on him????u red the report???
Thankfully, the law does not require that the testimony of an eye witness is necessary for conviction. The evidence in this case against Skinner is overwhelming.
My thing is this! Who else would want to kill that woman and her son's ? It wasn't a robbery nobody stole anything from what I've read Hank was abusive to that woman and her son's! So who else Hank had to be the killer and he was hiding in the closet when the cops found him🤔 I think he went crazy and killed them all!!
I love how Skinner believes that he's more intelligent than he actually is. According to him her oldest son woke him up, got him dressed and they then left the house togehter. Yet during all this time Skinner not once asked the son who did this? And people who actually thinks he's innocent never ever question that. I've yet seen any reporter ask Skinner that question. Which makes me wonder are the reporters just stupid or ignorant?

when things are being hidden the right thing to do is to question and demand answers.. Not nod your head in ignorance and accept the BS that goes on in our legal systems!
He wasn't convicted based on his confession, he was convicted on the overwhelming evidence against him. Apparently, he thinks the confession is highly damaging in that he has had it sealed and denies its existence. Unfortunately for him, a good portion of it was read into evidence at the HC hrg. I'm hoping that once he's executed the court will release it.
(Pt. 3) In this case, all evidence was not presented at trial, but Skinner claims his counsel did this w/o his consent. I also can't reconcile why no scratches were found on him, and I'm not sure the tissue under Twila's fingernails was tested, nor was there an adequate profile of her uncle (Donnell) to compare to anyway.
How about that Yellow Jacket? Just got lost right? Could it be that someone left in a hurry and forgot their jacket? Could it be that investigators threw the jacket out so we can never find out?
Four people were, but skinner murdered three of them. However, Skinner cut his hand using a knife without a hand guard to stab two of the victims to death. He bleed all over the murder weapon which he claimed he did not touch that night and which was found in a room he claimed that he did not enter that night. They have obtained dna profiles from the blood stains on the knife and they match Skinner's and Caler's. He's guilty.
The problem for this guy and his legal semantics and maneuvers is that there is a massive elephant in the room. Who else on the planet had any motive for these killings.
You mean the jacket that Twila's mother testified at trial belonged to Twila and the defense offered no rebuttal-- that jacket? lol! The rest of what you cited the jury heard about except for the blood drops which were neither fresh nor near the door. It has no forensic relevance since it was on a public sidewalk and does not overcome the mountain of evidence pointing to Skinner. .Also, I note that the defense has not asked for that blood to be subjected to additional testing.
Does no one care about the evidence that was not allowed during trial? Do you not even care that there are corrupt, unscrupulous individuals in this world that will go all out for a win regardless of innocence? That is not how the law is.. A person has a right to a fair trial and all evidence should be used to ascertain guilt not just that which will fit nicely the agenda of the state!
Honestly I don't think he done it but that's just my opinion. The jacket that the real killer worn is gone, it disappeared supposedly and that alone would of proven his innocence.
The evid. at trial was that the jacket belonged to Twila. It was found on the floor a cple of feet from her head. That it was Twila's jacket was not rebutted at trial or subsequently. I wouldn't assume TX lost it. It cd have been easily swiped by the defense when they had it ordered out for a hearing in 2006 & not returned. I wouldn't put it pass them. But since the jacket belonged to Twila, it has no forensic value. It also does not make all the other evidence proving his guilt disappear.
How did brain tissue get on Hank's socks and other clothing? Why didn't the defense ask for DNA testing during trial? Why wasn't Hank murdered with the others? Why was Hank's DNA found on the axe handle? Why didn't Hank seek help for the young man who died on the neighbor's porch? Why did Hank seek shelter in his old girlfriend's house rather than seek help for those dead or dying? How did Hank's blood get all over the house? The missing jacket was Twila's according to testimony.
There is no reasonable doubt that Skinner did not murder 3 people. The fact that someone who does not know the evidence and is against the DP disagrees, is irrelevant.
Hilarious eating last meal, they should do this randomly anyway. Learn from Russia, they know they are death row but they are not told the date. As far as the killer knows their death could be the next day.👌🏼
(Pt. 4) I'm not asserting anything absolute, so please correct me if I'm wrong on anything? I'm requesting (not demanding) links to any data I may have missed, if you'd be so kind to point me to it? Or is my only option to request what is in public record? This is purely for personal reasons, to simply satisfy to me that he is indeed guilty, as you and countless others assert so vehemently. I don't have an "agenda" or any ties whatsoever to this case. I only want to see what I'm missing.
So what happens next? How long will it take for the DNA test results to be made public? Who has them? Is there any sort of time limit concerning their release? Can Hank expect another execution date any time soon?
I usually would tend to lean towards what makes the MOST sense, and in this case, he is MOST LIKELY guilty. However, I would like to really try to be open-minded. E.g., a confession is essentially meaningless, in terms of guilt. And unfortunately, my "research" fails to make it crystal clear, so I hope people like you can help me (or redirect me)? I hear his story has changed somewhat, over time, not that it proves his guilt, per se. But can anyone point me to what these changes were?
No I am talking about the the missing jacket 4 sizes smaller than Hanks size which had blood sweat and hair on it. The knife found in a plastic bag with a hand print on it not Hanks hand print by the way... Foot impressions found in pooled blood around one of the victims head, not Hank's size..Fresh blood drops on sidewalk by his door.. DNA tested and confirmed not to belong to Hank but an unknown male. Hank's physical incapacitation at the time of the crimes.. This is what I am talking about!
Maybe so, but I'm sure my fellow jurors would tell me what I missed. It's just too bad I can't get the same here. I asked only for a LINK, not a full explanation or anything.
(Pt. 1) Just as whether anyone or everyone (besides certain judges) was personally convinced is irrelevant, in terms of his sentence being carried out. I'm merely asking for a link that lists sufficient evidence that would convince me. I didn't know the jacket was Twila's, and I thank you for telling me. But that still leaves unanswered questions that, IMO, could cross the threshold of "reasonable doubt," not that it would be enough to exonerate him, after the fact.
No, you haven't been following the story. Instead, you have been reading the lies of his groupies. He has accused the uncle, the ex wife, and a man he claimed he caught Twila in bed with that day,
Those of you who thinks this guy is innocent. I've got a question for you, now I'm not gonna call anyone anything, that's not my style. To use name calling to present an opinion just because yours is different than someone elses is a weak way of doing it. So now I've watched some of the videos out there about this guy, now I'm from Sweden so I know I don't know a whole lot about the story and about Skinner. But what I've been able to find on the internet I've read and of course I've watched a few videos. Now I'm no expert about this, but it seems a bit strange to me that Skinner would first use the shop accident story to describe his cut in the hand. Only to later change it to the glass globe thing in the house. Meaning he's used more than one version to describe how he got the cut. Seems to me that someone who's telling the truth would remember his story. That's just my two cents.
The Swedes Versus he had surgery on his hand!!! had a drain removed!! they could have bunked that fact with medical records but they didnt!!! and why!!!!??? because it wouldnt fit in with the DA's versions and her lies-twisting the evidence!!!!!hellooooo!!!
The Swedes Versus much more people need killing WAAAAY b 4 Hank Skinner! start with this baby killers. he should not b executed when those sick fucks get couple years and set free to do it again!!
Tonya Loper lol ypu know Skinner told 2 different versions of how he cut his hand right? Neither one had anything to do with surgery. You're making shit up now which is pathetic. For the record Skinner hasn't been executed yet and the man is guilty.
The Swedes Versus no. i am NOT wrong! i don't live in Texas , therefore i do NOT make shit up! u need to check ur facts. do ur homework!! then ...we can talk.
Man, I would love to just have some barbecue and drink some Lone Star beer with Hank. He did what he did or didn't but honestly it would be cool to hang out, eat good food, drink cold beer, and just share cool stories. Kids drugs will end in a dead road man. Stay away from them.
I didn't mean any disrespect to the victims. The reporters have to do a job and get to know the perpetrator and it is about psychology. I didn't put the stay in 2010 remember that brother. If I was in charged his azz would be gone back in 94. Never forget that.
jHank also had some evidence suppressed. Like his statement to a cop ,how he woke up with no booze because the "stupid b***h took my bottle of vodka to HER party" That is what made the deputy kick him in his azz and shove him in his cell. The deputy was rightfully enraged to hear all that horrific violence was over a damn bottle of booze. His zero concern over 3 people brutally murdered shows his true colors. Me me me, common for a psychopath.
This video was posted years ago but i occasionally think about Hank unfortunately i believe him to be guilty he may of been so intoxicated he blacked out and does not realize he killed them the evidence against him does not look great
Listen a conviction especially a DP conviction 'which by the way is inhumane and abhorrent' should never ever be executed when there is reasonable doubt and there is enough reasonable doubt here to sink the titanic!
We can presume that an innocent person would post evidence that he claims proves his innocence. He does not. He cherry picks, refuses to release or has the court seal evidence. He's the one arguing for actual innocence. He is not. AntiDP advocates routinely and falsely claim that they once believe a defendant guilty or are "unsure" b/c they think it gives greater weight to their opinions -- it does not.
(Pt. 1) It somewhat makes sense logically, but it assumes that said evidence is airtight, and/or it ignores other important factors. Put differently, I don't think that ANY evidence can absolutely vindicate him, but it might perhaps raise doubt. E.g. had TX not lost the jacket, it would be harder to convict him. So, why not post it anyway? Maybe because it can easily be interpreted either way, pissing people off more? Or that it makes no difference in the big scheme of things? IDK...
Capital Steez Bull. He has visits from his wife, groupies, legal team. He has clergy visits, too. He has the other prisones in the unit he can speak to. He has recreation. He talks so much because he thinks the more lies he tells the more likely fools will believe him.
Skinner told the cops that he woke up and saw that his vodka bottle was gone. Twila had taken the last bottle of booze in the house to the party. This is probably what put him in his homicidal rage.
So, you're arguing that I'm incapable of "seeing" the truth, so it would be futile to even give me a chance to try? I see your point about "that game" you don't play, but I can only give you my word that I won't post any followups. If you (or anyone else) would kindly post a link or 2, I promise to reply, only with nothing but gratitude. Thanks, folks.
We can't presume that photos we think SHOULD support his case would actually do so. Similar logic can apply to the rest you cited. This is irrelevant, but I started out being SURE he's guilty. Now, I'm not so sure, just undecided. His story is somewhat plausible, and if true, could reconcile the "home run" arguments that prove his guilt (e.g. that he made his way to the ex-gf's). But how does he explain his blood found everywhere in the boys' room, when he cut his hand outside, no?
This yahoo is very much alive in 2016. So much for the death penalty. He did all this shit in 1993. By the way,one,count 'em,one of 3000 death row folks have been exterminated this year. Y'all got some catchin' up to do.
Let's talk about those hairs they tested in Twila Busby's hand. How is it that none of these hairs were Hank Skinner's? His hair was long and if he was chocking her she would have been trying to stop him. Nope I don't believe it, those were the hairs that belonged to who ever killed her and it wasn't Hank!
He's spend twenty years in prison without.... Without toothpaste and dental care evidently. I don't know if Mr. Skinner is concerned about his teeth or not, but if he's asking for dental care he ought to have it. His teeth are gross.and are disgraceful, convicted or not.
Tommy Byrd I'm sure they DON'T have dental care for death row inmates in the Polunsky unit. Even the the solitary inmates don't have properly cleaned cells, etc. for them...
Was Skinner dressed when attempts were made to wake him for the party? If he was dressed, when did he wake from his comatose condition and take his clothes off?
(Pt. 2) Again, I started out having no doubt whatsoever of his guilt, not that this matters one bit to anyone but me. I've tried (moderately) to research whatever google can find for me, on BOTH sides. Alas, I'm stuck at "undecided," which would require that I vote "not guilty" as a juror (on any *new* case, because here, it's meaningless).
I didn't really appreciate that my last posts were met with utter rebuke from you, but I failed to follow several unwritten rules, which I'll come back to explain (mainly for others, not you so much). For now, please disregard my earlier reply (deleted by me), and after I go through my new data, I'll most likely be back to apologize.
None of the tests results have been exculpatory. This last round on Skinner's dime - the results were to be submitted to the court last week. Where's the results? Why is he hiding the results? Don't you hold your breath waiting for them to be exculpatory.
oh yes it came back alright showing an unknown contributor and in 'April 2013 the Attorney General's office and the defense signed an agreement regarding mitochondrial DNA testing which will be done by a private lab and paid for by Hank.' So don't hold your breath for the execution!
(Pt. 2) I'm honestly doing my best to remain unbiased, but I'm just not convinced (yet). Perhaps I'm too stubborn to accept such things at face value? IDK. With someone's life on the line, I tend to overlook such details, and I could very well send off innocent men to die, just as other jurors undoubtedly have (though rarely). I'm no legal expert, nor am I even a "qualified" layman. I just need help finding the evidence that makes everyone so certain he is guilty? Little help please? Thanks!
There is no conclusive evidence against Hank Skinner. There is only two camps here, the ones who think he did it and the ones who think he didn't. Neither side could actually prove weather he is innocent or guilty in any absolute or "Proof beyond a reasonable doubt" kind of way, but the State of Texas legal system allows for these "I think he is guilty" type convictions to go forward. Police in Texas intimidate witnesses, Prosecutors withhold evidence favorable to the Defendant (or lose it) and the system seems even proud of their ability to convince Jurors of guilt with little or no evidence. Even if the State was only wrong one out of a hundred times they should not be allowed to continue to use the Death Penalty. One Guilty person Murdered by the State is one too many!
This is the reason why I'm against the death penalty. Yes he maybe quilty however what bbn if he is innocent and gets executed. That is worse then killing someone who is guilty however in instances such as Nicholas Cruz who is a mass killer FRY HIM!!!
Skinner hired Max Courtney to examine the evidence. However, skinner has refused to release his report and he did not call him to testify at the trial nor at the habeas hearing. Why? Because not only did Courtney not say what skinner claims he said, Courtney called skinner a liar.
why don't you hush with the why's and wait for the DNA evidence to prove his innocence? Does it not worry you that this guy may have been railroaded? I can't wait to be back here and make people eat their words.. I sure as hell will eat mine if I am wrong!

It has no forensic relevance since it was on a public sidewalk and does not overcome the mountain of evidence pointing to Skinner. .Also, I note that the defense has not asked for that blood to be subjected to additional testing.
Does no one care about the evidence that was not allowed during trial? Do you not even care that there are corrupt, unscrupulous individuals in this world that will go all out for a win regardless of innocence? That is not how the law is.. A person has a right to a fair trial and all evidence should be used to ascertain guilt not just that which will fit nicely the agenda of the state!
he's funny good staff
from darkness you came into the light, and from the light you go back to darkness... so whats the point of living.......
Plato Pythagorean experience life
Again,, why won't the defense release the test results? What are they hiding?
Honestly I don't think he done it but that's just my opinion. The jacket that the real killer worn is gone, it disappeared supposedly and that alone would of proven his innocence.
“He done it” - its he “did” it.
“The killer worn” - the killer “wore”.
Good grief; you can do better than that.
"...you know what I am saying ..."😀
loooooool
I am a fan of Hank even though he's guilty of temporary insanity.
The evid. at trial was that the jacket belonged to Twila. It was found on the floor a cple of feet from her head. That it was Twila's jacket was not rebutted at trial or subsequently. I wouldn't assume TX lost it. It cd have been easily swiped by the defense when they had it ordered out for a hearing in 2006 & not returned. I wouldn't put it pass them. But since the jacket belonged to Twila, it has no forensic value. It also does not make all the other evidence proving his guilt disappear.
Free my nigga Hank Skinner
U guys should good a picture of twila and her sons
How did brain tissue get on Hank's socks and other clothing? Why didn't the defense ask for DNA testing during trial? Why wasn't Hank murdered with the others? Why was Hank's DNA found on the axe handle? Why didn't Hank seek help for the young man who died on the neighbor's porch? Why did Hank seek shelter in his old girlfriend's house rather than seek help for those dead or dying? How did Hank's blood get all over the house? The missing jacket was Twila's according to testimony.
There is no reasonable doubt that Skinner did not murder 3 people. The fact that someone who does not know the evidence and is against the DP disagrees, is irrelevant.
Are there any crime scene photographs that show the broken glass that Hank supposedly cut his hand on?
No... Bc he killed them 💀
Hilarious eating last meal, they should do this randomly anyway. Learn from Russia, they know they are death row but they are not told the date. As far as the killer knows their death could be the next day.👌🏼
That’s all well and good if the person is guilty if not that’s torture for the mind
@@IAMKIMBERLEYOFFICIAL obviously death row is a place for criminals who have 100% evidential prove of guilt against them.
(Pt. 4) I'm not asserting anything absolute, so please correct me if I'm wrong on anything? I'm requesting (not demanding) links to any data I may have missed, if you'd be so kind to point me to it? Or is my only option to request what is in public record?
This is purely for personal reasons, to simply satisfy to me that he is indeed guilty, as you and countless others assert so vehemently. I don't have an "agenda" or any ties whatsoever to this case. I only want to see what I'm missing.
Why the hell is this man still behind bars!?!
Why don't you let him come live with you when he gets free?
@@granny58. I damn sure would
So what happens next? How long will it take for the DNA test results to be made public? Who has them? Is there any sort of time limit concerning their release? Can Hank expect another execution date any time soon?
I usually would tend to lean towards what makes the MOST sense, and in this case, he is MOST LIKELY guilty. However, I would like to really try to be open-minded. E.g., a confession is essentially meaningless, in terms of guilt. And unfortunately, my "research" fails to make it crystal clear, so I hope people like you can help me (or redirect me)?
I hear his story has changed somewhat, over time, not that it proves his guilt, per se. But can anyone point me to what these changes were?
No I am talking about the the missing jacket 4 sizes smaller than Hanks size which had blood sweat and hair on it. The knife found in a plastic bag with a hand print on it not Hanks hand print by the way... Foot impressions found in pooled blood around one of the victims head, not Hank's size..Fresh blood drops on sidewalk by his door.. DNA tested and confirmed not to belong to Hank but an unknown male. Hank's physical incapacitation at the time of the crimes.. This is what I am talking about!
Maybe so, but I'm sure my fellow jurors would tell me what I missed. It's just too bad I can't get the same here. I asked only for a LINK, not a full explanation or anything.
(Pt. 1) Just as whether anyone or everyone (besides certain judges) was personally convinced is irrelevant, in terms of his sentence being carried out. I'm merely asking for a link that lists sufficient evidence that would convince me.
I didn't know the jacket was Twila's, and I thank you for telling me. But that still leaves unanswered questions that, IMO, could cross the threshold of "reasonable doubt," not that it would be enough to exonerate him, after the fact.
No, you haven't been following the story. Instead, you have been reading the lies of his groupies. He has accused the uncle, the ex wife, and a man he claimed he caught Twila in bed with that day,
Those of you who thinks this guy is innocent.
I've got a question for you, now I'm not gonna call anyone anything, that's not my style. To use name calling to present an opinion just because yours is different than someone elses is a weak way of doing it.
So now I've watched some of the videos out there about this guy,
now I'm from Sweden so I know I don't know
a whole lot about the story and about Skinner.
But what I've been able to find on the internet I've read and of course I've watched a few videos. Now I'm no expert about this,
but it seems a bit strange to me that Skinner would first use the shop accident story to describe his cut in the hand. Only to later change it to the glass globe thing in the house. Meaning he's used more than one version to describe how he got the cut.
Seems to me that someone who's telling the truth would remember his story.
That's just my two cents.
*****
The difference is he knows where he really got it from. He's just making excuses.
The Swedes Versus he had surgery on his hand!!! had a drain removed!! they could have bunked that fact with medical records but they didnt!!! and why!!!!??? because it wouldnt fit in with the DA's versions and her lies-twisting the evidence!!!!!hellooooo!!!
The Swedes Versus much more people need killing WAAAAY b 4 Hank Skinner! start with this baby killers. he should not b executed when those sick fucks get couple years and set free to do it again!!
Tonya Loper lol ypu know Skinner told 2 different versions of how he cut his hand right? Neither one had anything to do with surgery. You're making shit up now which is pathetic. For the record Skinner hasn't been executed yet and the man is guilty.
The Swedes Versus no. i am NOT wrong! i don't live in Texas , therefore i do NOT make shit up! u need to check ur facts. do ur homework!! then ...we can talk.
Man, I would love to just have some barbecue and drink some Lone Star beer with Hank. He did what he did or didn't but honestly it would be cool to hang out, eat good food, drink cold beer, and just share cool stories. Kids drugs will end in a dead road man. Stay away from them.
+kd47730 Yeah have a beer with him before he murders you. Sounds like a fun time. Moron.
I didn't mean any disrespect to the victims. The reporters have to do a job and get to know the perpetrator and it is about psychology. I didn't put the stay in 2010 remember that brother. If I was in charged his azz would be gone back in 94. Never forget that.
jHank also had some evidence suppressed. Like his statement to a cop ,how he woke up with no booze because the "stupid b***h took my bottle of vodka to HER party" That is what made the deputy kick him in his azz and shove him in his cell. The deputy was rightfully enraged to hear all that horrific violence was over a damn bottle of booze. His zero concern over 3 people brutally murdered shows his true colors. Me me me, common for a psychopath.
This video was posted years ago but i occasionally think about Hank unfortunately i believe him to be guilty he may of been so intoxicated he blacked out and does not realize he killed them the evidence against him does not look great
Listen a conviction especially a DP conviction 'which by the way is inhumane and abhorrent' should never ever be executed when there is reasonable doubt and there is enough reasonable doubt here to sink the titanic!
You would be akin to a juror who slept through the entire presentation of evidence then voted not guilty. lol
We can presume that an innocent person would post evidence that he claims proves his innocence. He does not. He cherry picks, refuses to release or has the court seal evidence. He's the one arguing for actual innocence. He is not. AntiDP advocates routinely and falsely claim that they once believe a defendant guilty or are "unsure" b/c they think it gives greater weight to their opinions -- it does not.
Hank is 100%percent not guilty you would have to have a very low I.q not to see this
Jeff Turner that's what he would have you believe. Your smarter than the entire force of the law? Nah
(Pt. 1) It somewhat makes sense logically, but it assumes that said evidence is airtight, and/or it ignores other important factors. Put differently, I don't think that ANY evidence can absolutely vindicate him, but it might perhaps raise doubt. E.g. had TX not lost the jacket, it would be harder to convict him. So, why not post it anyway? Maybe because it can easily be interpreted either way, pissing people off more? Or that it makes no difference in the big scheme of things? IDK...
GUILTY
were you there?
Whether he is or isn't guiIty he CAN and DOES taIk constantIy!!!!!!!
Douglas Price Spending a lot of time on your own can do that to you. I imagine he has very little human contact, if any.
Capital Steez Bull. He has visits from his wife, groupies, legal team. He has clergy visits, too. He has the other prisones in the unit he can speak to. He has recreation. He talks so much because he thinks the more lies he tells the more likely fools will believe him.
He finally has someone to talk to and listen to him. Have you ever experienced true isolation beyond your control?
9/13/23 Hank will get justice.
What does this mean?
his ex wife to santa claus? damn been following story but never heard that
Skinner told the cops that he woke up and saw that his vodka bottle was gone. Twila had taken the last bottle of booze in the house to the party. This is probably what put him in his homicidal rage.
So, you're arguing that I'm incapable of "seeing" the truth, so it would be futile to even give me a chance to try? I see your point about "that game" you don't play, but I can only give you my word that I won't post any followups. If you (or anyone else) would kindly post a link or 2, I promise to reply, only with nothing but gratitude. Thanks, folks.
We can't presume that photos we think SHOULD support his case would actually do so. Similar logic can apply to the rest you cited.
This is irrelevant, but I started out being SURE he's guilty. Now, I'm not so sure, just undecided.
His story is somewhat plausible, and if true, could reconcile the "home run" arguments that prove his guilt (e.g. that he made his way to the ex-gf's).
But how does he explain his blood found everywhere in the boys' room, when he cut his hand outside, no?
This yahoo is very much alive in 2016. So much for the death penalty. He did all this shit in 1993. By the way,one,count 'em,one of 3000 death row folks have been exterminated this year. Y'all got some catchin' up to do.
+William Samuels I wish they could start with you, Who needs proof, you probably killed somebody
It takes waaay too long. That's why it doesn't deter. Also it should be publicized. The execution itself.
Let's talk about those hairs they tested in Twila Busby's hand.
How is it that none of these hairs were Hank Skinner's? His hair was long and if he was chocking her she would have been trying to stop him. Nope I don't believe it, those were the hairs that belonged to who ever killed her and it wasn't Hank!
Fuck Texas!
No, Texas says, "Fuck YOU!"
Fuck Texas Fuck Texas #freeclintonleeyoung
Free my ngga Hank Skinner
He's spend twenty years in prison without.... Without toothpaste and dental care evidently. I don't know if Mr. Skinner is concerned about his teeth or not, but if he's asking for dental care he ought to have it. His teeth are gross.and are disgraceful, convicted or not.
Tommy Byrd I'm sure they DON'T have dental care for death row inmates in the Polunsky unit. Even the the solitary inmates don't have properly cleaned cells, etc. for them...
haha like they are gonna give free dental care to convicted killers..this is America not the UK 😂
Was Skinner dressed when attempts were made to wake him for the party? If he was dressed, when did he wake from his comatose condition and take his clothes off?
(Pt. 2) Again, I started out having no doubt whatsoever of his guilt, not that this matters one bit to anyone but me. I've tried (moderately) to research whatever google can find for me, on BOTH sides. Alas, I'm stuck at "undecided," which would require that I vote "not guilty" as a juror (on any *new* case, because here, it's meaningless).
I didn't really appreciate that my last posts were met with utter rebuke from you, but I failed to follow several unwritten rules, which I'll come back to explain (mainly for others, not you so much). For now, please disregard my earlier reply (deleted by me), and after I go through my new data, I'll most likely be back to apologize.
None of the tests results have been exculpatory. This last round on Skinner's dime - the results were to be submitted to the court last week. Where's the results? Why is he hiding the results? Don't you hold your breath waiting for them to be exculpatory.
Waste of time and taxpayers money and blood
free my nigga Hank Skinner
oh yes it came back alright showing an unknown contributor and in 'April 2013 the Attorney General's office and the defense signed an agreement regarding mitochondrial DNA testing which will be done by a private lab and paid for by Hank.' So don't hold your breath for the execution!
(Pt. 2) I'm honestly doing my best to remain unbiased, but I'm just not convinced (yet). Perhaps I'm too stubborn to accept such things at face value? IDK. With someone's life on the line, I tend to overlook such details, and I could very well send off innocent men to die, just as other jurors undoubtedly have (though rarely).
I'm no legal expert, nor am I even a "qualified" layman. I just need help finding the evidence that makes everyone so certain he is guilty? Little help please? Thanks!
Guilty
He died during brain tumor surgery in feb 2023
11:22 The man is totally delusional how can the jacket be eight full sizes too big for him? He thinks he is a Lilliputian.
This dude is a sociopath.
You're understanding of our laws is zero. As I have stated, I've dealt with people like you before and I don't play that game.
This guy is still alive? Christ
He's innocent. Fucking uncle did...
He got a date in 2023 he's been around way to long
There is no conclusive evidence against Hank Skinner. There is only two camps here, the ones who think he did it and the ones who think he didn't. Neither side could actually prove weather he is innocent or guilty in any absolute or "Proof beyond a reasonable doubt" kind of way, but the State of Texas legal system allows for these "I think he is guilty" type convictions to go forward. Police in Texas intimidate witnesses, Prosecutors withhold evidence favorable to the Defendant (or lose it) and the system seems even proud of their ability to convince Jurors of guilt with little or no evidence. Even if the State was only wrong one out of a hundred times they should not be allowed to continue to use the Death Penalty. One Guilty person Murdered by the State is one too many!
He was railroaded like 30-40% of convicts on death row
Except he did it. Everything literally points Skinner.
Liverpool beat Porto 5.0 this evening....wait what are I watching?
This is the reason why I'm against the death penalty. Yes he maybe quilty however what bbn if he is innocent and gets executed. That is worse then killing someone who is guilty however in instances such as Nicholas Cruz who is a mass killer FRY HIM!!!
you just lost when you threw in the insult! We are now going to play a game of F*** Off.. you can go first!
Skinner hired Max Courtney to examine the evidence. However, skinner has refused to release his report and he did not call him to testify at the trial nor at the habeas hearing. Why? Because not only did Courtney not say what skinner claims he said, Courtney called skinner a liar.
why don't you hush with the why's and wait for the DNA evidence to prove his innocence? Does it not worry you that this guy may have been railroaded? I can't wait to be back here and make people eat their words.. I sure as hell will eat mine if I am wrong!
What these officials justify playing with a persons life is about as sick as it can get
Rip hank skinner died 23/02 2023 aged 61 brain cancer
In this news video filmed days after the murders, one of Twila's family members talks about how they kept warning Twila that Skinner was a violent and dangerous man.
/watch?v=4iWZNC2BnhM
He is guilty come on look at the evidence!! Get rid of him already I’m sick of hearing his very voice!
How you know? And what if he was not guilty? The American justice system stinks to high heaven.
@Max Larsen ohh gross!! Give me a damn break!
Hate the way he breathes and looks and exists
